Answer:
Last year, emm watched a great sports game on television with her dad. It was the semi-final match of the Asian football tournament between the Vietnam team and Qatar in China. Under the green grass, the players in Vietnamese white shirt and Qatar red shirt gradually entered the field. When the game started, captain Luong Xuan Truong passed the ball to his teammates. The players run fast to win the ball. The ball is passed from one person's feet to another. Every time the ball approached the goalkeeper's goal, the audience cheered loudly to cheer. Qatar U23 had a first goal. Shortly thereafter, the number 19 player Nguyen Quang Hai scored with an impressive shot. Just a second later, your team's net vibrated. Everyone burst into victory. The joy, the unexpected joy in the match that day I still cannot forget.
